Well if you were one of those people that thought that golf doesn’t need Tiger Woods, I think after his performance so far at the Masters 2010, we can safely agree – That golf is just better when Tiger is in it!
Yes he has some major issues, and yes he needs to spend a long time regaining peoples trust and admiration but sports people all over the world continue to play their sport and get less scrutinized.
For example, the number of Australian Rules Football (AFL or footy) players that have been charged or acquised of rape, and they continue to play! Is it because Tiger is a golfer and with that sport it has a different type of expectation?
The first round couldn’t have been better with Fred Couples in the lead, with Tom Watson, Sandy Lyle and of course Tiger Woods near the top.
With Round 3 completed, it is going to be a fantastic race to the finish with Westwood, Mickelson, Woods, Choi and Couples all with a shot!

Can Tiger recover? Can Golf viewing recover? Is it really true that one player can have that huge an impact and will it return?
